Summer Book Club: Week Five Links Now Live

Join us as we discuss how to reinvigorate your women’s ministry after social isolation due to COVID-19. One of the biggest issues currently facing our chapel groups is re-launching after extended social distancing and loss of momentum. Let’s re-build better, taking the time to strategize how to refresh our ministries, strengthen personal connections, and improve outreach.

The MCCW Summer Book Club study launches next week on Sunday, June 28, so be sure to order your book now.  Use coupon code “MCCWBOOK”  to receive 25% off your order at avemariapress.com.

Our lineup will include weekly video releases from the author followed by open Zoom Q&A on Wednesdays at 7 p.m. EST.  All content will be published to Facebook.  The weekly video presentations will be posted to the public MCCW Facebook page, our website, and the MCCW YouTube channel.  We encourage you to share these videos within your groups and with your Catholic military friends.  

The Wednesday weekly discussions will be hosted live on Zoom and shared with our private MCCW Facebook group.  In order to participate, you will need a Zoom account or you can view the discussion without participating by joining our Facebook group.  We also ask that chapel groups and leaders consider hosting watch parties on Facebook for anyone within your group. Due to technology platform limitations, the discussion with Q&A will not be available on YouTube or our website.  We apologize for any inconvenience.
